Chapter 706 707 Alaska in the Bitter Winter
The bearded white man with a red panda cigarette in his mouth, wearing a Chinese-style special forces camouflage, made people look full of a sense of disobedience, but in the eyes of the elite fighters next to him, this stout man was like their soul. The big man is Boris, one of the several Red Alert heroes under Qi Yiming, and a fourth-level hero with strong combat ability, second only to Yuri, who has broken through the fifth level.
Unlike Yuri, who has the appearance of a Chinese in his own plane, Boris is still a typical Russian face, but ethnicity cannot change his loyalty to the master of the Red Police base, nationalism and blood values have no meaning to him, he never feels that he is a Russian, let alone a Chinese, for him, only to complete the tasks entrusted to him, and the ultimate honor of a soldier.
However, in the process of playing for the Chinese camp, Boris still got into a lot of Chinese habits, such as he likes to smoke, does not smoke cigars, and likes famous Chinese cigarettes such as red pandas; He likes to eat spicy food, Hunan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine are his favorite dishes, but he disdains things like Heileba; He looked like a hairy man, but Boris never drank because he felt that drinking would make a mistake and that alcohol would have a very limited effect on him.
Boris and his elite fighters sit in a rapids ACV, and by his side is another heavyweight Red Alert hero, Yuriko. Yuriko looked out of place among a group of five big and three thick special forces, even though it was minus forty or fifty degrees Celsius outside, she was still wearing a high school girl sailor suit that revealed an absolute field in the cabin.
No elite combatant dared to look at her, or even dare to think about it. This is a phenomenon of the Red Alert Base production unit certainly having a zĂ i rank suppression, and at the same time, Yuriko's powerful super energy wave is enough to make it impossible for ordinary people to approach this girl at all.
Boris did not show any gentlemanly manners, and smoked non-stop in the cabin with the "lady", but Yuriko did not complain about him, Boris snuffed out the cigarette butt, and said: "Maybe this kind of war makes Yuri's boy more appropriate." â
Yuriko snorted lightly: "You are kind-hearted, Yuri has made such a big splash in Japan, do you have a good temper to watch him overpower several of our other heroes?" â
Boris said: "It's the same task, and it's admirable to be able to reach that level." â
Yuriko said again: "Even if he has the ability, he is already a waste after the incident in Japan, without a period of cultivation, he can't play a role at all, and we still need to do it when we land in Alaska." â
Above the white ice bridge is the almost endless whitewater ACV fleet, which forms the Bering Strait between Kamchatka and Alaska after October every year. The ice bridges are not completely stable, and there is a possibility of ice floes, and in some places huge ice caps have formed. The aborigines of North America originally came to the Americas from the ice bridge in Asia, and until today, the ice bridge has always existed, but as the climate warms, it has also become smaller and shorter.
The attack on Alaska basically cannot use the Navy's orthodox aircraft carrier battle groups, battleship fleets, etc., and the thick ice makes no ship dare to intrude into this area lightly, otherwise the tragedy of the Titanic may happen to them again. The Riptide ACV, which is actually "in the air", is not affected by this, and it can travel not only on the sea, but also on land, not to mention on glaciers. The super adaptability to the battlefield also allows the Riptide ACV to fight in such an extremely harsh environment without fear of severe cold. Even the air conditioning set up in the Riptide ACV made the cabin feel at least 23 degrees Celsius, so that the fighters would not be too uncomfortable.
Accompanying Boris and Yuriko, there are still thousands of Riptide ACVs, although these large air cushion transport ships of less than 1,000 tons are manufactured by ordinary shipyards, which are expensive and cost-effective, but they are manufactured by the Red Police Base, and it is no problem to provide Qi Yiming with thousands of them a month. Considering that the PLA and the SCO coalition forces will constantly face large-scale landing operations, Qi Yiming has built thousands of such air-cushion landing ships specifically for large-scale landing operations.
The Riptide ACV will not act alone, and the air force of the SCO coalition will also cover them throughout the whole process, and there are hundreds of Tengu mechs mixed in the fleet, which can be used as close response firepower at any time, and can also become auxiliary firepower on the ground, especially in complex terrain.
In addition to the more common armored vehicles and tanks that have been treated against severe cold and ice and snow, the infantry of the Winter Legion also uses the latest scientific and technological achievements, fully sealed and warm exoskeleton combat suits. This type of exoskeleton combat suit is the first generation of products in service with the Chinese army, and the effect of improving its combat power is not particularly obvious, and its main role is to provide soldiers with combat ability in extremely cold conditions.
Infantry equipped with this combat suit is able to continue fighting in an environment of minus 80 degrees Celsius, and is very agile and unaffected. In an environment of minus thirty or forty degrees, 20 seconds of exposure to the air is enough for a person's fingers to freeze, so in a place like Alaska, the warriors' worst enemy is not the opponent's guns, but this terrible cold. With this warm combat suit, the soldiers can continue to fight in the snow and ice, and do not have to become useless popsicles as soon as they leave the room.
Alaska is different from the winter in other parts of the world, the troops of many countries have the habit of "winter training", and South Korean soldiers even have photos of shirtless snow on their bodies circulating, but this thing has to be done in Alaska, it is a very idiotic thing, and even as long as they take off their cotton coats, it will not take long for them to freeze to death in the snow.
Boris said to his soldiers: "We will not encounter too strong resistance, there is no modern warm combat uniform of the enemy, in this environment the time to act is limited, the distance is limited, the flexibility is limited, it will not be our enemy at all, and Alaska itself is not a big barracks, the Americans mainly set up an air force command here, in order to guard against the Soviet Union, now in order to guard against us, the battle in the sky has nothing to do with us, what we need to do is to rush in and complete our mission." â
In fact, Boris's team is not going to capture a certain city or a military base at all, what kind of mission turns will be dispatched to the two superheroes, him and Yuriko? The answer is to destroy the Palace of Mystery and kill or capture Grigory Kirk alive.
By the time the Riptide ACV landing force had not yet landed on Alaskan soil, a fierce air battle had already broken out. The Chinese Air Force and the U.S. Air Force ushered in a battle that took place in the polar eternal night. Earlier, the United States withdrew some fighters from the Alaska Air Force, and the number of American fighters has always been relatively less than that of the Chinese Air Force.
In South Africa, the Solomon Islands, and Europe, US fighter planes are constantly falling from the sky, while Chinese fighter planes are fighting more and more, and the number of Chinese fighter planes alone is not less than 1,000 on almost any battlefield, which makes the United States feel like it is on pins and needles, and it is facing tremendous difficulties on the battlefield. Just like the current air battle in Alaska, the US military only has more than 600 fighters here, and it is not possible to take off all of them for a while, but China, in cooperation with the Far East Air Force, has made up 1,081 fighters, of which 60% are advanced fifth-generation fighters.
A large number of fighter planes flew to Alaska and engaged in a fist-to-flesh air battle with the US military planes that took off and intercepted them urgently. Although the US military put up a desperate resistance, the huge superiority in weapons technology and numbers still caused the US fighters to fall from the sky like mosquitoes that have been hit by insecticides.
When the US fighters were unable to defend their bases, the Chinese tactical bombers that came in the follow-up began to carry out all-round strikes against various radar stations, airfields, and communications facilities in Alaska, with the aim of preparing for the subsequent landing of the Red Police.
The US military also did not expect that in such an environment, the Chinese were capable of launching a large-scale offensive, and the defensive preparations along the Alaska coast were simply insufficient, because the Americans did not believe that someone could pass through the ice this season, and even if they used icebreakers, they could detect it in advance, and they could not imagine that the Chinese landing fleet was directly "flying" on the ice.
The Riptide ACV is also capable of operating on flat shores, and is equipped with 30mm Gatling guns and 76 guns to effectively suppress the enemy. The Chinese Red Guard Winter Corps descended from above, and the tanks, armored vehicles and mechs were painted with white camouflage camouflage, which was difficult to detect in the icy and snowy environment everywhere.
The resistance of the US military was scarce, and only at some bases was that the resistance was more intense, but it was free
